calm down.
You appear to be losing it.
Its hard to calm down
You know when Kerry ran against Bush I did not feel this way. When Gore ran it was a little different because he was still associated with the clintons and I didn't not want a Clinton 3rd term. I just can't understand how someone can say something so shameful and hurtful. I can't even imagine what Obama's wife is thinking. Probably one of her biggest fears, and then along comes her husband's oponent and says something like this? Just really gets the blood pressure going. Some of the media is trying to make excuses for her but there is just no excuse. I wouldn't think so harshly if she had come out right away and said in no way did she mean what came out of her mouth, but she waits til the end of the day and then tries to cover it up and doesn't even apologize. Despicable and sleezy!!!!!!
calm down and we need to get the facts...
Being that I do not trust McCain based on his erratic behavior, I am going to wait this out to see what happens. I would not simply just believe anything thrown out there right now by these 2 candidates, Mc and Palin, as they are too desperate to provoke violence and hate.

Judy, calm down already
The election is over. Get over it.
Yeah, like he wants everyone to know he is calm

o.k., calm down, antidepressants are
not really addressing the problem, they 'mask' it only.
Believe me if you have a grief, it is better to work through your problem, so that you can get closure.
If you take antidpressants your problem stays in your subconscience, unandressed and suppressed, but during the night, when you dream then it brakes loose and causes nightmares and maybe insomnia, because you just have to confront your problem to solve it.
This is what my doctor told me who is very careful with prescription. He gave me multivitamins instead.
I understand your point, but calm down!
I have not had a chance to read the latest news. If she is saying what you claim, then I agree that is bad. Still, I think you should relax a bit.
I would be calm sweet and caring too
if I had her money. Her outfit the other night was said to be worth over $300K. Minus the 3-carat diamond earrings, the outfit was only valued at around $30K. Laura Bush's outfit was estimated to be valued at less than $5K. Michelle Obama's was probably in that ballpark too.
Even if this stuff was donated by the designers, etc., I can't relate to any of these people. You will find me cruising the aisles of my local thrift shop looking for a bargain
Nothing eery about the calm O supporters.
for the moment, especially for those of us whose jobs bit the dust since the primary season. It's not drill baby drill...it's jobs, baby jobs. I have no doubt Obama will do exactly what he said he would when the time is right.
The tentative compromise deal being reported as we speak will ultimately throw a much needed cold damper on all that fun you seem to be having over your mantra of the hour (phone calls jam Capitol Hill). Do you intend to continue to cackle this much while your fellow citizens are lining up to apply for unemployment and food stamps to stay afloat long enough until the pubs come to their senses and pass the compromise they are reporting on as we speak?
You need to take a pill and calm down, Auntie.
And.... Rush Limbaugh? Who listens to that windbag anymore? Pardon me, but your ignorance is showing.
Oh, but you meant control as in calm?

Do not fall for this hysteria... we all need calm heads
or we will all be in trouble, republican and democrats. This is becoming the perfect storm for socialism if we do not stop being led around by those trying to play on our emotions.
Ummm...wonder how I blindly didn't see all that, Katie Couric was calm and her questions were str
I realize everyone has a blindspot, I certainly do, but when a woman wiggles and waggles on questions that Katie put to her and they were not spiteful, "tearing into her," and she can't answer them, I certainly would not be trying to get into the White House where I might become president and do more harm than good. I am sorry to say, but it is Americans like yourself who do not read the good with the bad who put Bush in the White House that sent me into a depression for weeks. If he could have appointed himself King or despot he would have. I guess you agree with jobs going overseas, not just ours but everyones? We may just not recover from this. Vote for McCain/Palin, it is your right, I just hope you are ready for the consequences. Do you just pass over everything that is said about this woman? She is sneaky. Bush is sneaky. You will never know what she is up to if she is put in the White House.
Anyone who watched the Katie Couric interview and can say it was vicious or slanted just did not watch it. Beat your gums all you want to but try to get informed.
Excellent! Thank you.
Excellent!

Excellent.
A lot of people do say if she was a man the media would never go after her and she wouldn't be attacked like she has been. I liked the post. Thanks.
Excellent.
If O wins and a few months goes by, I will be proud to say I am the one who voted for McCain. This is not a normal election, this is like a radical movement going on.
EXCELLENT.

Just the big bad.....also excellent.

I saw this back during the election. It brought tears to my eyes back then and still does. This soldier is so very right with everything he has to say. I think it's just a very sad time for our country right now. Gone are the days of many people feeling patriotic and doing what is necessary to keep our country free. I mourn for the country we once had and am very guarded about what is to come for us.
I served in the US Army to protect our country. I was a very proud American and served to protect our country from enemies.
"I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic."
Back then we all thought it would only be foreign enemies. Who knew back then that in the future (now) it is domestic enemies.
Way to go! Excellent!!!!!!
I was actually going to post and say I do believe he actually goes to the bathroom the same way all of us do (well the men at least). So, hey, he must really be like one of us. I am truly amazed at the way some people think. I find American Idol tryouts to be more entertaining.
The last I knew Barack Obama was a human being. A man just like every other man on the planet. Sleeps, drinks, eats, and poops the same way. The people treating him like a God is getting way out of hand.
The simple matter they all fail to forget is just cos he eats a dog and fries does not make him like us. This is a man who was pushed into power faster than any of us could turn around. This man sends his kids to camp that costs $10,000 a week. This is a man who lives in mansion and has no idea what it is we (the plebes of society) are going through. He will never have to worry about putting food on his table, paying his electric bill. He is in a life of luxury and every once in awhile he will do a photo shoot so that people will say "wow, look at that, he ate a dog and fry - gosh he must be in tune with us". Here's some news...Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, John McCain, George Bush, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, John Edwards....they all do these photo ops too (remember Hillary guzzling down the beer with the workers). They all do it.
People need to stick with issues. Not this phony photo op thing. All presidents to it. As for him holding a baby. He was on TV and I saw someone hand him a baby and he didn't look all that happy or comfortable about it.
Barack Obama will never be "like us". Just like Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Mit Romney, etc. These people are and never will be "like us".
LOL - That was excellent! Thanks
I love Jon Stewart. I like that Obama has a great sense of humor. Its the obots that give him a bad name.
I thought it was funny that on the podium under Baracks name his title is "Almost President" ha ha
Thanks for sharing! I love a good laugh no matter who it is about.
EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!
Okay - I'll tell you right now I haven't watched the whole thing, actually I haven't watched any of it :-)BUT..... with that said my DH has watched it many times. He keeps telling me to watch it and it's one saved in my favorites for "one of those moments when I'll have time to do something other than work". He's told me all about it and we've had this discussion so many many times.
I'll tell you what I feel..... What happened to JFK is just a grain of sand compared to what has been done with this whole thing. I loved the part where GW tells the kids he was watching TV when he saw the first plane hit (nobody saw it cos it wasn't on tape). I also loved the reporter (not sure if that is on this loose change video) but loved the reporter who was talking about Building 9 (I think it was called bldg 9) that had just collapsed and sitting there behind her was bldg 9 still standing. A short while later it collapsed.
Not many people I can talk to about this because they'll claim me a "whacko" and ridicule me and tell me I've got all these conspiracy theories and treat me like I'm that character that Mel Gibson played in the movie "Conspiracy Theory". :-) But this is just so much to think about. It's horrible and I am shocked that in my lifetime I have lived to see something like this. It does make you think - that's for sure.
Excellent - you said it better than I could
I'm not very good at expressing myself, but you said exactly what I feel. If I want to give charity I will give it of my own free will.
We do not need redistribution of wealth and socialism. If you think redistribution of wealth and socialism is the way to go, then move to Cuba or Russia because you are not a patriot of the United States of America and everything our founding fathers fought for.
Excellent - thanks
Especially your last paragraph.
Thank you for this excellent example of
Not one mention of the 1948 or 1967 wars that were launched against Israel. Not a word about Arafat, Hamas, rockets, suicide bombers, etc. Not a word about the countless ceasefires broken by the Palestinians.
This is nothing but a complete distortion of the truth about this region.
EXCELLENT point! nm

Chris was excellent
pinned him to the wall like a bug (no offense to bugs out there). Intersting also that he mentioned McCain's former policy chief (or something) Tori Clark wrote a book with the name. I love to see the hyocrites squirm. it sends a thrill up my leg.
Excellent post!!

I didn't know this - excellent!
Tx for the link.
Excellent post!!!
My sentiments exactly!
excellent point
You have taken a startle complex to a burning house. Talk about constantly overreacting, overblowing, and goin all histrionic over every little thing . . . burp.
Excellent observation
Truth is truth and facts are facts. No matter how much you hate someone and think their dummer than a rock, you can't put the blame all on him. Everytime the democrats get into office the economy goes down the tubes. The facts are that the congress votes on issues (not George Bush).
Love the observation. Thanks.

You hit the nail right on the head.

One thing about the crisis...sure been learning a lot about the economy these past few days.
FrontPageMag Is excellent
Maybe the poster has a problem with Jews (David Horowitz, etc.)... Everyone shoud read this article!
To All My Friends, this is long, but very important, please take the time to read it.
This election has me very worried. So many things to consider. About a
year ago I would have voted for Obama. I have changed my mind three times
since than. I watch all the news channels, jumping from one to another. I
must say this drives my husband crazy. But, I feel if you view MSNBC, CNN,
and Fox News, you might get some middle ground to work with. About six
months ago, I started thinking "where did the money come from for Obama".
I have four daughters who went to College, and we were middle class, and
money was tight. We (including my girls) worked hard and there were lots
of student loans.
I started looking into Obama's life.
Around 1979 Obama started college at Occidental in California . He is very
open about his two years at Occidental, he tried all kinds of drugs and was
wasting his time but, even though he had a brilliant mind, did not apply
himself to his studies. "Barry" (that was the name he used all his life)
during this time had two roommates, Muhammad Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid,
both from Pakistan . During the summer of 1981, after his second year in
college, he made a "round the world" trip. Stopping to see his mother in
Indonesia , next Hyderabad in India , three weeks in Karachi , Pakistan
where he stayed with his roommate's family, then off to Africa to visit his
father's family. My question - Where did he get the money for this trip?
Neither I, nor any one of my children would have had money for a trip like
this when they where in college. When he came back he started school at
Columbia University in New York . It is at this time he wants everyone to
call him Barack - not Barry. Do you know what the tuition is at Columbia ?
It's not cheap! to say the least. Where did he get money for tuition?
Student Loans? Maybe. After Columbia , he went to Chicago to work as a
Community Organizer for $12,000. a year. Why Chicago ? Why not New York ?
He was already living in New York .
By "chance" he met Antoin "Tony" Rezko, born in Aleppo Syria , and a real
estate developer in Chicago . Rezko has been convicted of fraud and
bribery this year. Rezko, was named "Entrepreneur of the Decade" by the
Arab-American Business and Professional Association". About two years
later, Obama entered Harvard Law School . Do you have any idea what
tuition is for Harvard Law School ? Where did he get the money for Law
School ? More student loans? After Law school, he went back to Chicago .
Rezko offered him a job, which he turned down. But, he did take a job with
Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland. Guess what? They represented "Rezar"
which is Rezko's firm. Rezko was one of Obama's first major financial
contributors when he ran for office in Chicago . In
2003, Rezko threw an early fundraiser for Obama which Chicago Tribune
reporter David Mendelland claims was instrumental in providing Obama with
"seed money" for his U.S. Senate race. In 2005, Obama purchased a new home
in Kenwoood District of Chicago for $1.65 million (less than asking price).
With ALL those Student Loans - Where did he get the money for the property?
On the same day Rezko's wife, Rita, purchased the adjoining empty lot for
full price. The London Times reported that Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born
billionaire loaned Rezko $3.5 million three weeks before Obama's new home
was purchased. Obama met Nadhmi Auchi many times with Rezko.
Now, we have Obama running for President. Valerie Jarrett was Michele
Obama's boss. She is now Obama's chief advisor and he does not make any
major decisions without talking to her first. Where was Jarrett born?
Ready for this? Shiraz , Iran ! Do we see a pattern here? Or am I going
crazy?
On May 10, 2008 The Times reported, Robert Malley advisor to Obama was
"sacked" after the press found out he was having regular contacts with
"Hamas", which controls Gaza and is connected with Iran . This past week,
buried in the back part of the papers, Iraqi newspapers reported that
during Obama's visit to Iraq , he asked their leaders to do nothing about
the war until after he is elected, and he will "Take care of things".
Oh, and by the way, remember the college roommates that where born in
Pakistan ? They are in charge of all those "small" Internet campaign
contribution for Obama. Where is that money coming from? The poor and
middle class in this country? Or could it be from the Middle East ?
And the final bit of news. On September 7, 2008, The Washington Times
posted a verbal slip that was made on "This Week" with George
Stephanapoulos. Obama on talking about his religion said, "My Muslim
faith". When questioned, "he make a mistake". Some mistake!
All of the above information I got on line. If you would like to check it
- Wikipedia, encyclopedia, Barack Obama; Tony Rezko; Valerie Jarrett: Daily
Times - Obama visited Pakistan in 1981; The Washington Times - September
7, 2008; The Times May 10, 2008.
Now the BIG question - If I found out all this information on my own, why
haven't all of our "intelligent" members of the press been reporting this?
This phrase keeps ringing in my ears: "Beware the enemy from within."

Excellent post - thanks
What an excellent post! Very well thought out.
PS - I did not know hersey moved. I always thought they made all their candy in Hershey PA (I went to the factory when I was little). I'm no longer buying that brand anymore.
